Answer:

The correct option is (b).

Explanation:

We need to find the work done to increase the speed of a 1 kg toy car by 5 m/s.

We know that, the work done is equal to the kinetic energy of an object i.e.

$W=\Delta K\\\\W=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\W=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1\times 5^2\\W=12.5\ J$

So, 12.5 J of work is done to increase the speed of a 1.0 kg toy car by 5.0 m/s.

An electric charge, A, is placed carefully between two other charges, B and C, and experiences no net electric force. Do B

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

I do not have enough information to tell

Explanation:

This is deduced due to the fact that if the net force due to B and C on A is zero, the charges on B and C could either be positive or negative depending on the charge on A.

A ball is kicked from the top of a building with a velocity of 50 m/s and lands 165 m away from the base of the buildi

solniwko [45]

Answer:

32.3 m/s

Explanation:

The ball follows a projectile motion, where:

- The horizontal motion is a uniform motion at costant speed

- The vertical motion is a free fall motion (constant acceleration)

We start by analyzing the horizontal motion. The ball travels horizontally at constant speed of

$v_x = 50 m/s$

and it covers a distance of

d = 165 m

So, the total time of flight of the ball is

$t=\frac{d}{v_x}=\frac{165}{50}=3.3 s$

In order to find the vertical velocity of the ball, we have now to analyze its vertical motion.

The vertical motion is a free-fall motion, so the ball is falling at constant acceleration; therefore we can use the following suvat equation:

$v_y = u_y +at$

where

$v_y$ is the vertical velocity at time t

$u_y=0$ is the initial vertical velocity

$a=g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity (taking downward as positive direction)

Substituting t = 3.3 s (the time of flight), we find the final vertical velocity of the ball:

$v=0 + (9.8)(3.3)=32.3 m/s$

The 9-inch-long elephant nose fish in the Congo River generates a weak electric field around its body using an organ in its tail

Alik [6]

Answer:

$1.34\cdot 10^{-16} C$

Explanation:

The strength of the electric field produced by a charge Q is given by

$E=k\frac{Q}{r^2}$

where

Q is the charge

r is the distance from the charge

k is the Coulomb's constant

In this problem, the electric field that can be detected by the fish is

$E=3.00 \mu N/C = 3.00\cdot 10^{-6}N/C$

and the fish can detect the electric field at a distance of

$r=63.5 cm = 0.635 m$

Substituting these numbers into the equation and solving for Q, we find the amount of charge needed:

$Q=\frac{Er^2}{k}=\frac{(3.00\cdot 10^{-6} N/C)(0.635 m)^2}{9\cdot 10^9 Nm^2 C^{-2}}=1.34\cdot 10^{-16} C$
